Resumen del Libro

Brief overview of development of State policies vis-à-vis juvenile delinquency focuses on three historical turning points: the rise of such policies in the 1930s, the initial crisis of welfare policies in the 1950s, and the fiscal crisis of the 1980s (accompanied by a perceived wave of juvenile crime and calls for the greater use of punishment as a response) –Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
